Pinch-hits by Tommy McCraw and Winston Llenas, who drove in a run apiece, sent the Angels on the way to a 7-4 victory over the Brewers. Frank Robinson homered for the Angels, but Darrell Porter hit a two-run blast off Bill Singer in the sixth inning to put the Brewers ahead, 4-3.

In the seventh, Rudy Meoli singled for the Angels. McCraw, batting for Jeff Torborg, doubled to tie the score and Llenas, hitting for Sandy Alomar, singled to drive in the leading run. The Angels iced the verdict with two more tallies in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
